Hikayat Storytelling Fest

Step into the magical world of traditional storytelling with the Hikayat Storytelling Series, presented by the Hikayat Storyteller Guild under Hikayat Fandom. Inspired by Malaysia’s rich oral traditions, each session features a storyteller bringing to life legends and folklore drawn from the narrative worlds of Makyong, Mek Mulung, Wayang Kulit and classical hikayat literature.

Expect captivating tales of legendary heroes, mystical beings, royal intrigue and epic adventures — stories once told in palace courts and village gatherings, now reimagined for modern audiences. Through lively narration, expressive performance and hands-on craft moments, audiences of all ages are invited to rediscover the power of voice, memory and imagination. Come and experience the soul of our stories — where legends live again. 

Hayati keindahan tradisi penceritaan dalam Siri Penceritaan Hikayat, yang dianjurkan oleh Hikayat Storyteller Guild di bawah Hikayat Fandom. Berakar daripada tradisi lisan yang kaya di Malaysia, setiap sesi menampilkan seorang pencerita yang menghidupkan kisah legenda dan cerita rakyat yang diinspirasikan daripada dunia naratif Makyong, Mek Mulung, Wayang Kulit serta hikayat klasik.

Penonton akan dibawa menyusuri kisah wira legenda, makhluk mistik, drama istana dan pengembaraan epik — cerita yang suatu ketika dahulu dipersembahkan di balai istana dan halaman kampung, kini dihidupkan semula untuk penonton masa kini. Melalui penceritaan yang memikat, persembahan ekspresif dan aktiviti kraf ringkas, pengunjung diajak merasai kembali keajaiban dunia cerita tradisional. Datanglah dan alami semangat kisah warisan kita — di mana legenda hidup kembali.
